Calculate Embedded Emissions for Unwrought Aluminium (HS7601)

Enter your input

Payable emissions (tCO₂e/t)

Total CBAM Cost (€)

Notes:
There may be a difference when calculating the price with respect to import volume, carbon price, and benchmark emissions, as the embedded formula may result in minor variations due to decimal rounding. Therefore, the actual value may vary.

CBAM is applicable to trade volumes starting from 50 metric tonnes. For trade volumes below 50 metric tonnes, CBAM does not apply.

Usage Procedure – How to use the CBAM Calculator Sheet

Enter or update values only in the INPUT
PARAMETERS section (Highlighted in blue) , including
the carbon price, benchmark emissions, CBAM
chargeable percentage (as per the phase-in year),
and imported quantity.

The system will automatically calculate the payable
emissions and the total CBAM cost (€) based on the
inputs provided.

Notes:
• Change any input value to automatically update CBAM cost.
• Formula used: Carbon price × payable emissions × quantity.
• Model aligned with CBAM supplier-side illustrative methodology.

Environment Agency reveals impressive Y-o-Y growth in aluminium packaging recycling rate

EDITED BY : SARNALI CHAKRABORTY 2MINS READ

The Environment Agency (EA) recently published research data on the remarkable increase in aluminium packaging recycling volume compared to the 2022 projections. The information was published by EA on the National Packaging Waste Database (NPWD), which showed that in the first quarter alone, 40,478 tonnes of aluminium packaging were collected for recycling, a 14 per cent increase over the previous year (35,382).

Of this amount, 28,850 tonnes were recycled actively by consumers through kerbside, bring, and on-the-go methods (+14 per cent YOY). In comparison, 11,323 tonnes were recovered from incinerator bottom ash (IBA), with tonnages increasing +20 per cent YOY. So far this year, 60,621 tonnes have been caught in the United Kingdom, a 13 per cent increase over the same time last year (53,725). Progress is being made while the requirement has been reduced across all material kinds.

Tom Giddings, executive director of Alupro, said, “The UK’s latest PRN data shows an impressive increase when it comes to separately collected aluminium packaging, material recovered from IBA and other local protocol fractions. It’s positive news indeed that PRNs issued to date this year are already well ahead of target. While we can’t guarantee that this pace will continue throughout the rest of 2023, with six months of the year – and the busy Christmas period – still to go, the feel is decidedly positive across the supply chain when it comes to outperforming 2022 figures.”

“We’re still awaiting market data to be submitted by some companies, which once again suggests that enforcement needs to be better and system reform is critical. However, if recycling volumes continue to climb and the obligation remains stable once missing data has been entered, we could be on course for an impressive total tonnage for 2023. Although some industry critics had suggested that the high recycling rates experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic were just a short-term trend, it’s reassuring to see that impressive volumes have continued. This is, in part, due to changing consumer behaviours, driven by programmes such as Every Can Counts and MetalMatters,” added Giddings.
